Sounds good I'll take the head off today and look at the ports. Dumb question, but should I just make the ports bigger? How much bigger?

.125" is about as thin as you can get the crank, you can go thinner on the head if it's got 1/2" that sleeves into the crank. exhaust ports in the head, along with the intake ports in the head/crank.

Flatheads have significantly better bsfc and detonation resistance than any other engine design. Boost one, or go fist yourself!

Well guys i'm officially an idiot. Im sitting here at work thinking about the power transfer on the cart and realized I welded the small gear onto the chainsaw clutch itself and not the flywheel. Oh damn am I stupid. Hopefully it's not too FUBAR and I can "unweld" it and do it properly. :1

For our high mileage cars in HS we used a tapered cone on the crankshaft and bolted the motor on a plate with tubes welded to the bottom, it would slide on smaller tubes to make the engine move so the tire would come in contact with the bigger or smaller part of the cone, the point on the outside to get us going and move it into the big part to get some speed, these things could really haul *** sometimes close to 50 mph at road america. thats movin when ur crunched up in a car that weighs less than 100 lbs. oh yeah we got 580 miles per gallon with that bitch.

Took the cart for a ride. Not very torquy. lol. Chain keeps popping off so I gotta fix that. Scary at anything over ~5mph








Here's the scooter. Still a good bit of work to be done. Hopefully it will actually move once I'm done.
